I may not have been the best combat commander, but I always strove to be. My men depended on me to carefully analyze every tactical situation, to maximize the resources that I had at my disposal, to think under pressure, and then to lead them by personal example.

Sgt. Tilley has demonstrated a certain panache within the ranks of the 29th. When it comes to breaching, overtaking, or assaulting a point, few provide as potent a fighting force as DP2S2 which is directly due to the skill and prowess of Sgt. Tilley. After 6 long years of service, there are certain requirements and expectations of a soldier, Sgt. Tilley not only checks them all off, he has somehow added even more through his careful critique of our regulations and progress. Congratulations on this remarkable milestone, Sgt. Tilley. We are all excited to see where you take your career next.
